Don’t Toss And Turn At Night!

Debt. It’s a reality of modern living that is very difficult to escape. The fact is, people today are pushed into a cycle of purchase and payback which often foists them deeper and deeper into debt. Debt restricts freedom, and makes it so that living as you would like is difficult or impossible.

The good news is, you can get out from under the thumb of debt. The not-quite-so-good news is that it may take some time to do so. But one of the most important initial steps is to figure out how much you owe, and find some way of consolidating your varying payments into a single, easier to manage one.

If you’re unfamiliar with consolidation, basically it’s what you may expect: varying debts are gathered together into a single charge that you whittle down on a regular basis.

Pay More Than Interest Adds Regularly

Now the key to paying off even the biggest loan is to make payments which over-reach the increase that’s appended to your principle loan amount through interest on a regular basis. For example, if you’ve got an interest rate of 5% which is compounded on a monthly basis atop a $1,000 loan, pay more than fifty regularly.

5% of $1,000 is $50. So in a month, the loan compounds to $1,050. By the next month, it’s become $1,102.50. But if you pay $100 during that month, so that the compound comes on $900 instead of $1000, then you’re looking at $945 when the interest hits. Pay $100 again, so you’re down to $845, when interest hits you’re down to $887.25.

Pay $100 again, the loan drops to $787.25, which after interest becomes $826.61. It’s a battle of diminishing additional expense. Ideally, you want to increase what you pay against your loan every month to get it reduced with highest expediency.

The only downside is time; but once you understand where you’re at, how much you owe, and how to fight against the bill increasing every thirty days, you can get yourself dug out of the hole.

Exactitude Helps Expedite Debt Recovery

When you don’t know the exact amount you owe, individual loans and their interest can make it seem like you’re treading water. Certainly it’s possible to manage a variety of loans entirely on your own, but this can be stressful and discouraging, which can diminish your productivity, making repayment more difficult.

Imagine having to calculate interest that increases and diminishes this way across multiple loans. You could have a house payment, a car payment, a student loan, and credit card debt. These four are some of the most common. They’re not overly complicated, but they can become overwhelming if you don’t consolidate.

So find an agency whose review you find agreeable, sit down with a financial professional, and get everything condensed into something not just more manageable, but more likely to help you reduce your debt expediently.
